Denmark's Armored Personnel Carrier Contest.

A new variant of our CV90 Armadillo has been delivered to Denmark to undergo competitive evaluation. With its superior performance and ability to protect our troops now, and well into the future, this vehicle proves to be a low-risk solution for long-term sustainment.
I just got back and this is what I found.

Trust me, I'm scrambling to try and find out what modifications have been done for the contest in Denmark and as soon as I know so will you.

I do know that the raised super structure appears fixed, its missing the remote weapon stations/shot detection/anti-IED/smoke-grenade launchers that were on the previous version.

It also seems to have increased ground clearance (another anti-IED feature?).  I like this vehicle.
